Chapter 350: Mongolian Specialties
Kyoshi Imperial Palace.
Liu Jin was wearing a python robe, and walked towards the Qianqing Palace unhurriedly, his demeanor was quite calm, and he looked forward to the faint majesty of the superiors, so that countless patrolling warriors and eunuchs in the palace bowed down to give way.
Every time he walked in the palace, Liu Jin felt a little proud in his heart, he enjoyed this feeling of being under one person and above tens of thousands of people, and he was willing to come to the bitter end, the little-known old eunuch in the East Palace, after paying the price of serving the prince for ten years, finally became a master, and became the inner minister who affected the fate of Huanghuang Daming.
- If someone who made him so unhappy also died, it would be all the best, but alas, God doesn't have long eyes.
When he was about to walk to the Qianqing Palace, Liu Jin suddenly stopped his steps, pondered for a while, reached out and made his meticulously combed hair slightly messy, and then made the veil hat on his head a little crooked, looking a little flustered, and then took a deep breath, adjusted his facial expression, and changed into a hurried but extremely surprised appearance in the blink of an eye.
Everything was adjusted properly, and when there were still dozens of zhang away from the Qianqing Palace, Liu Jin began to run.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, a great joy!" The shrill voice of joy echoed leisurely at the gate of the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Houzhao sat in the East Warm Pavilion of the main hall, looking at the pile of notes on the book case in front of him with a sad expression and dull eyes, which were presented by the Beijing Chinese officials, no matter what kind of wording, what kind of grammar, what kind of splendid pen, it only expressed one meaning, that is, the extreme disapproval of the posthumous title of Qin Kan, and it was even mixed with the blood letters of several ministers. As a sign of sworn opposition, a bloody book that had long since dried up and turned dark red was spread out on the bookcase, like a terrorist blackmail letter, which looked so shocking.
Zhu Houzhao didn't care about these, after ascending the throne for a long time, the more the ministers reprimanded and criticized him, Zhu Houzhao also had a resentment towards the ministers in his heart, it can be said that the relationship between the monarch and the minister in the Ming Dynasty has long fallen to the freezing point, not to mention a few blood letters that I don't know whether it is human blood or dog blood. Even if some ministers chop off their fingers to oppose it. Zhu Houzhao will not have any reaction.
Posthumously conferring Qin Kan's title, so that the incense of the Qin family will continue from generation to generation and be passed on from generation to generation, this is Zhu Houzhao's idea after he left the funeral of the Qin family. Ideas are not to be changed. It doesn't matter how many blood letters the ministers write. It is even more of a joke to threaten the so-called "civil official death advice", and if you have the ability, you will die more than half of it, which is just a matter of worry.
A quarter past noon. The bronze bell of the bell and drum division rang again, according to the rules, this is the bell to remind the emperor of the noon dynasty, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it has been passed to Zhu Houzhao is the tenth generation of emperors, the previous nine emperors are lazy and diligent, the lazy needless to say, not much better than Zhu Houzhao, for example, Zhu Houzhao's grandfather Emperor Xianzong often does not come to the court, but it is more elegant than Zhu Houzhao's hobby, people hide in the inner palace to alchemy for longevity, everyone is also lazy, but what they do is more than one grade higher, I have to say, Zhu Houzhao didn't even play well.
In addition to the lazy emperor, there are naturally diligent emperors, such as Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, Yongle Emperor Zhu Di and Xiaozong Zhu Youji, etc., are very diligent in state affairs, often two or even three dynasties a day, really put the safety and fate of the country in mind at all times, and now Emperor Xiaozong is not far from the collapse, the bell and drum division is still according to the rules of Hongzhi, according to the standard of two court meetings every day, as usual, knock once in the morning and once at noon.
Regardless of the annoying bell, Zhu Houzhao now sees the ministers of the court with a face that is not a face, and the court meeting is often open and opens into a meeting of the ministers to criticize the emperor.
Ignoring the melodious bells, Zhu Houzhao supported his chin with one hand and sighed heavily.
Qin Kan...... Why did he die? I don't look like a short-lived person when I look left and right.
I casually took a piece of osmanthus cake on the table and stuffed it into my mouth, and the snacks I used to love tasted no taste today, like chewing wax.
Thinking of all the things that I knew with Qin Kan at the beginning, we got into trouble together, played together, taught him the principles of being a man, taught him filial piety as a son of man, and often came up with bad ideas that came out of accident......
Zhu Houzhao's eyes blinked, and tears soon filled his eyes again, Qin Kan died, and an unprecedented loneliness hit his heart.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, a great joy!"
Liu Jin staggered into the Qianqing Palace with a shout, he was panting, his old face was red, and every drop of sweat flowing on his face seemed to be jumping excitedly.
Zhu Houzhao wiped his tears, and glared at him fiercely with red eyes: "Do you have any rules for this old thing?" Well? ”
"Your Majesty, great joy! Qin Kan is not dead! ”
Zhu Houzhao suddenly opened his mouth wide, and a pair of eyes bigger than copper bells stared at Liu Jin in disbelief.
Liu Jin hurriedly repeated: "It's true, Your Majesty!" Qin Kan is not dead! After the first battle of Liaohe, there was a military report, the Qin people were in the most critical juncture of the siege, the governor of Duoyan Wei and Zhihua sent his daughter Tana to lead a thousand cavalry to gallop to help, and later together with the three thousand cavalry of Ye Jinquan, the deputy chief of the Liaodong Metropolitan Division, they completely annihilated the enemy who came to attack. ”
"Qin ...... Qin Kan, he's really not dead? ”
"I'm not dead! Lord Qin is really good, it is said that he still fought to the death with more than ten wounds of various sizes, and almost died in the country, and after being rescued, Lord Qin's heart was discharged, and then he launched a high fever, and he woke up after three days and three nights......"
Although his heart was sour, the expression on Liu Jin's face at this moment was happier than that of his father.
Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a long time, as if digesting the good news that fell from the sky, and his eyes stared at Liu Jin without moving, like a wood carving and stone casting.
After a long time, Zhu Houzhao suddenly looked up to the sky and shouted: "Ha! ”
Liu Jin was startled, and the surprise on his face suddenly turned into surprise, and he looked at him worriedly.
Zhu Houzhao snorted, and then "Ha Lu Ha Ha ......" looked up to the sky and laughed non-stop, like crazy.
Liu Jin was so frightened that he sweated all over his face, and when he was about to call the imperial doctor with a pale face, Zhu Houzhao coldly accepted his laughter. Said: "Where are the Qin Kan people?" ”
Liu Jin breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said: "The guard of honor has arrived at Chengping Mansion, and you will be able to enter the Beijing Division in three or two days between speaking." ”
"Okay, I'm going ten miles out of the city to meet him......"
"Your Majesty, this can never be done, throughout the ages, if it is not for the peerless merit of opening up the territory or saving the community, the emperor can not go out of the city to welcome the courtiers casually, the old slave is loyal to you, and he can understand your thoughts. But it was hard for the ministers in the court to speak. Your Majesty thought twice. ”
Zhu Houzhao's face was full of red light, and he was like the two of them who were sick and slumped just now, and after hearing this, he thought about it, nodded and said, "Then it won't be welcome." Save me and Qin Kandu some trouble. Liu Jin. You send a fast horse out of Beijing to tell Qin Kan that after returning to Beijing, you will enter the palace to see me. ”
"Yes."
Liu Jin bowed down and retreated, in the palace. Zhu Houzhao excitedly paced a few steps back and forth in place, looked up and suddenly laughed again, and then shouted loudly.
"Gu Dayong, Gu Dayong, where did you kill you? Hurry up and invite my mighty general out and fight for three hundred rounds! Also, I immediately sent a meal to the imperial dining room, but I didn't eat a grain of rice for two days, and I starved to death. ”

After Du Yan woke up, she was a little startled, and saw Qin Kan with her panicked eyes, so she believed that her encounter with Xianggong was not a dream, so she grabbed the corner of Qin Kan's clothes, hid in Qin Kan's arms and cried, crying heartbreakingly, and learned that Qin Kan did not shed a single tear after the battle, and the strong appearance of gritting her teeth to support the Qin family was no longer seen, and she was weaker than any woman in the world at this moment.
"Xianggong, I thought you were dead...... Du Yan sobbed.
Qin Kan hugged her tightly and said angrily, "I also thought I was dead at the time. ”
"Xianggong, your letter made me so scared, it was cold from head to toe, as if I had fallen into an ice hole, and I was completely hopeless......
Qin Kan said in a low voice: "The battle of Liaohe was too tragic, the Tatar cavalry had broken my Chinese army, at that time I really thought I was going to be martyred, so I hurriedly wrote a letter to the emperor, hoping that after I died in battle, he could treat my Qin family women and children well, not let you be bullied, and not in vain I shed the last drop of blood for the Daming Society......"
Du Yan cried louder and louder: "Don't say it, my heart hurts as if a needle is piercing hard, Xianggong, it's hard for you......"
Qin Kan smiled and hugged her tightly, and said, "Okay, it's all over, from now on, let's live a good life, and if I encounter an enemy in the future, I will turn my horse and flee, and I will flee fast and far." ”
Du Yan didn't think he was joking, but nodded seriously: "Yes, you must escape, the prime minister has been martyred once for the Ming Dynasty, and in the future, I must live well for myself and our Qin family." ”
"Everybody's alive...... Has anything happened to Kyori? ”
Du Yan glanced at Qin Kan and said: "Kill a thousand knives, I'm embarrassed to ask, the capital has changed a lot, the Qin family has no backbone, it is about to collapse, the emperor is so sad that he cried in our house for more than an hour, and, congratulations to Xianggong, the emperor will posthumously crown you as the Marquis of Shanyin, hereditary replacement, although it is posthumous, but Xianggong came back alive, presumably this title can't run away, and he will have to be called Xianggong Marquis in the future." ”
Qin Kan nodded: "Feng Hou, I know the Dao, Li Er told me, blessings and misfortunes lurk, and I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing." ”
"I don't understand the things in the court, Xianggong, for the sake of the descendants of the Qin family, you have to hold this title tightly in your hands......" Du Yan suddenly wrinkled her nose: "Speaking of descendants, Xianggong, what's the matter with you and Jin Liu?" ”
"Huh? Yes! …… Yan'er, come and take a look, this time I visited Liaodong, Xianggong brought you a lot of local products from the Saibei grassland, come and see, this is the sable skin and ginseng sent by the officials of Liaoyang Mansion, this is the best tiger skin, black bear skin, mare's milk wine sent by the Khan of Yanweihua......"
Qin Kan wiped the cold sweat on his head, forcibly opened the topic, and couldn't help but pull Du Yan to start enthusiastically introducing local products.
A pretty red figure suddenly appeared in front of the new Hou Ye and Mrs. Hou of the Qin family, with a heroic demeanor full of curiosity, staring at Du Yan up and down with interest.
Du Yanqiao's face was already a little black mist, pointed to Tana who suddenly appeared, and asked with a cold face, "Xianggong, who is she?" ”
Qin Kan had a strong urge to strangle Tana alive and bury her in the soil as if nothing had happened.
She ...... He ......" Qin Kan looked left and right, and Ding Shun and the guards beside him cast sympathetic eyes, and they all turned around and ignored them.
Qin Kan gritted his teeth and said with a dry smile: "She...... Didn't Madame see that she was also a souvenir brought back by her husband? ”
